Hollow Structural Section Connections

About this episode

Provides comprehensive instructions for the engineering and construction of Hollow Structural Section (HSS) connections. The manual outlines essential manufacturing standards and the mechanical properties of common steel grades used in North America. It focuses heavily on welded joint design, detailing various techniques like fillet and groove welds while addressing critical factors such as effective weld length. Additionally, the text covers mechanical fasteners, truss modeling, and moment connections for both round and rectangular shapes. Practical design examples and tables of applicability are included to help engineers navigate limit states and optimize structural efficiency. These guidelines ensure that HSS components are utilized safely in torsion, compression, and tension applications.
